Strategies + Backtests
Build in plain English. Validate on real bars.
Describe a setup in natural language and the AI Playground returns a validated DSL strategy. Or paste Python. Either way, every output runs the validator and a smoke test before it touches your saved strategies.
- Plain-English → typed strategy with schema validation
- Backtests run against historical Alpaca bars
- Critic flags overfitting + lookahead bias automatically

How we treat your account
Boring by design where it counts.
No live order path
The codebase literally cannot place a live order. Every executor talks only to Alpaca's paper sandbox; we accept no live-trading flag at any layer.
Your keys, encrypted at rest
Alpaca API credentials are stored under AES-256-GCM with a master key kept in our deployment secret store. You can rotate or clear them from Settings any time.
Per-user data scoping
Every protected route resolves to your user and every database read is auto-filtered to your rows. You see only your strategies, your decisions, your trades.
Informational only
Stockadviz is not a broker, not a financial advisor, and nothing on this site is investment advice. AI critiques use analytical language by design.
FAQ
The questions everyone asks first.
Is this real trading?
No. Every order routes through Alpaca's paper-trading sandbox. The live-trading code path doesn't exist in the codebase. You bring your own paper account so the simulation is realistic; nothing leaves the sandbox.
What does the AI actually do?
Two things: generate strategies from plain English (with validator + smoke test before save) and critique proposed orders. It writes in analytical language — pros, cons, what would invalidate the thesis — never directives like 'buy this.'
Why bring my own Alpaca account?
So your paper-trading P&L is yours and stays on Alpaca's books. We never see your live brokerage. Paper credentials are encrypted at rest in our database and never logged.
Is the source code available?
Closed source for now. The architecture (FastAPI + Next.js + Alpaca + Anthropic) is documented in the public docs once you're signed in.
How much does it cost?
Free during the current phase. If we add a paid tier, it'll be optional and the current feature set will keep working without it.
Does this give investment advice?
No. Stockadviz is an informational research and paper-trading tool. Nothing on this site is investment advice, an offer to buy or sell securities, or a recommendation tailored to your situation. Trading involves risk.
Ready to put your setups to the test?
Free during the current phase. Paper trades only. Sign up takes ~30 seconds; pasting your Alpaca paper key takes another ~30.
By signing up you agree that this tool is informational and not investment advice.
A research and paper-trading platform with AI-assisted analysis. Not a broker. Not personalized investment advice.
Important. Stockadviz is an informational research and paper-trading tool. Nothing on this site is investment advice, an offer to buy or sell securities, or a recommendation tailored to your situation. Trading involves risk; past performance is not predictive of future results. Backtests use historical data and may not reflect live execution conditions. AI-generated analyses are probabilistic and may be wrong.
